SMART is an unknown quantity at this point
Re: FLL Ocean Odyssey Challenge

I would have to disagree. But then I have an advantage because I have it set up in my house :-)

The research vessel is mounted on a "wobbly" platform. One can only presume that robots will need to get onto the research vesel. which may be a challenge due to the slop and the unstable nature of the platform.

Also, something not obvious from looking at a picture of the field is the VERY insteresting way the flags are placed. I won't tip it, and no idea what the mission there will be, but it is obvious it will be very hard.

Cheers,

Peter
